This series represents the roles and boundaries imposed by modern society that often hinder us from expressing our unique identities. The paintings depict dolls that, at first glance, appear to exist in a perfect and idealized environment—a "paradise," which, in reality, is merely a frame, a box. This paradise merges beauty with the confines of freedom.
However, the emotions of each doll, their shapes, and colors convey an inner struggle—a desire to see themselves as individuals and break free from the constraints. This series speaks not only about the world of model-like dolls but also about the human battle against predefined roles, stereotypes, and social boundaries.
"Dolls' Paradise" offers viewers not only a visual experience but also an invitation to reflect: What are our own "boxes," and how can we break out of them?
